To fine Larry's Cave head north out of Sutcliffe, Nevada on Rt445 N (Pyramid Lake Road). It then becomes Surpise Valley Road (also known as Smoke Creek Road). About 30 miles out of town if you pay attention on the left hill side you'll spot the chain link fence and the cave entrance.

Larry's Cave was found heading south to Sutcliffe, Nevada from Gerlach, Nevada on Smoke Creek Road. As we approached SAND PASS, a collection of old buildings, we looked west and spotted some chain link fence up in a rock formation. Getting out of the car we head up a gradual incline hill. Larry Benek was the first to reach it thus claiming rights to the name. Tom followed second delayed by insistant yelling from Dave, "Don't go in there!"

The interior photos below were taken with just the flash of a digital camera. Next time we'll take flashlights!
